This explains why you can get a 50" 4K TV for $250....because they left out the ability to walk away from your own shadow. It was a very expensive feature.
It would be very frustrating for a vampire though since they don't cast reflections or shadows. No TV will work so they'd paying all that extra money for nothing then. :P
No, it's because they have ads built directly into the televisions. And since they are smart, they also track what you watch, so they can give you targeted ads based on your viewing preferences. It's pretty scary that we live in times where you have to agree to a user agreement on a TV you bought, and own, in order to use it. And the company "technically" has the right to turn your TV off, and stop providing service for it. Even though it's your property.
@@I_WANT_MY_SLAW Yeah, i already pget used to it. You are forced to agree with google to be a "normal human" and the could force you to agree everything and you can't deny it. Probably they are anilizing my comments but i don't care anymore, bet there are a ton of people that are worse than me
Thank you Rob and thank you Deane for making these clips available. I loved this show as a kid and have many fond memories of it. Even now, approaching 37 years of age, I still find these videos very educational and appreciate the clear and concise manner in which you two are able to explain the science behind everyday phenomena. I'm very happy to be able to watch these again, and hope that a whole new generation of viewers is able to reap the benefits of your knowledge. Thanks again.
Many thanks.Curiosity Show featured Dr Rob Morrison and Dr Deane Hutton. A science TV series for children, it was broadcast nationally in Australia (where it was produced in Adelaide) and to 14 countries overseas and dubbed into German for European audiences. It won the Prix Jeunesse International in 1984, the top award in the world for children's TV. Lots more segments at ua-cam.com/users/curiosityshow where archived segments are uploaded every week
@CuriosityShow thanks for the explanation! I am particularly proud thar this Australian production was successful around the globe. We loved it, and my dad was particularly enamoured of it, too. 💗
I liked the noise they made when turning on and warming up before the picture ''Boink.. Pffffff'' and the timber.. Nothing is classier than electronics and timber.
To have created such simple, entertaining and informative segments back in the day I can only imagine the research and effort that had gone in it. Very well done. I wish I had access to these growing up in the 80's, but I feel lucky to be viewing these atleast in my late 30s thanks to the interwebs :)

Another thing you can do with an old CRT TV is "Newton's Bells" made from two soda cans, one pull-tab, a pencil, and some aluminum foil. The static charge on the screen that happens right after you turn it off can power the bell.
Used to have a mate who worked there, it was handy when the Adelaide show was on and he could let us through their side door to the showgrounds for free :D
When the Investigator closed, three of us bought the assets and formed SciWorld www.sciworld.org.au which now does the same sort of stuff but as a mobile science education outfit. I have just stood down as chair after 11 years and Deane is also on the board - Rob
yea, actually a lot of Veritasium's today's topics are inspired or taken from CS. Since Veritasium is an Australian channel too I think he grew up watching CS as well.
There is a useful technique for preserving the dark adaptation of your vision while still be able to see at all times. It seems rather obvious, but surprisingly few people seem to be aware of it. It is simply to keep one eye closed to preserve its dark adaptation while using your other eye to see. Then when you need dark-adapted vision, you can open the closed eye and close the open eye (to avoid distractions, and to let it start dark adapting).
I remember removing the phosphorous in side of the TV and my dad finding a bomb in the back room 3 days later asking if it was safe to go back there. Thanks dad for always supporting my chemistry passion
I discovered this as a kid, too! I noticed the screen glowing after a light was shut off. I proceeded to explore it with the flash from my parents camera.
When I was a kid my dad would take me to OMSI in Portland. Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. They had a room with a full wall you could do this on. Was real fun.
Wow, that TV was low res when they zoomed in! I had a big CRT TV as recently as 18 months ago! It weighed about 200lbs! It was ridiculously heavy, took two guys to carry it out of the house! 🤣

I just love those old CRT screens contrast ratio - from light grey to white. :-D I remember when we got our first Sony Trinitron screen which was not quite black, but better than anything that had come before it. It was mind-blowing. Now I watch this on an iPhone with an OLED screen... in my hand.

I used to have my blacklight on in the late 70,s cause my walls and ceiling were covered with those felt posters made for black lights and the tv would glow instantly and very bright as soon as I turned the light off, you could put your hand on it and leave a handprint instantly

they have or had an entire room (25ft x 25ft approximately) at the Boston Museum of Science set up for this. I think it was a specially painted wall, but I don't recall the method. anyway, kids and adults jumping up in front of the wall trying to freeze their shadow up in the air. it is a very cool place.
I remember the old Pye B&W Telly in my Brother's and myself's room and I would get the Torch and run it around the tube and you would see the glow on the screen.
There’s some horrible high pitch ringing in the background that makes this video almost painful to watch, I imagine for older people it may not even be audible
How old are you L Bell? I'm in my 30's and I can't hear any high pitched ringing. I've heard that people's hearing becomes less sensitive over time and that younger people are able to hear higher frequencies than older people.
I remember when everyone still had CRT, I couldn't walk down the street without hearing that pitch from every direction. I also heard that phoenix vanguard, I think it has more to do with what kind of sounds you are exposed to rather than degradation over time but I'm no expert.
Watching all of these old clips from this show has been amazing. I've noticed that a lot of commenters have lamented the fact that The Curiosity Show (or shows like it) are no longer on TV. But who watches TV anymore? Have Rob and Deane considered just making new segments for UA-cam? This channel probably already has enough subscribers to bring in enough revenue to cover costs, right?
I've done this same thing before by leaving my hand on the screen for awhile with a flashlight, and then turning the flashlight away so that it just reflects off the room. I first dicovered it when I noticed a can of soda pop had left a shadow after I had picked it up.
I made sure to save my tv. I see it every night when I go to bed. it's plugged up and ready to be used for any old games, but mostly I just watch it glow after turning the lights off.
Namidu Indunel I saw 8k monitors in Japan last year while I was in Tokyo. They are so pretty. You need one heck of a graphics card to drive them though.
i've always heard that Madame Curie's shadows still walk around on their own without the need for phosphorous and will continue to do so for 1000 years when they reach their half-lives and dim out a bit.
These days, I think you can get glow-in-the-dark acrylic/plastic sheets for a fair price. Of course, who does love those old CRT sets but this might be easy alternative.

I guess it's kind of the same principle when there's a bright light and then you close your eyes and can still see the image on your eyelids for a few seconds?
Wouldn’t it be funny if sometime after this was broadcast, they used a walk away from your shadow idea in a Dr Who episode, set in say, a 📚 library 📚 . Hey who turned off the light 💡?
This explains why you can get a 50" 4K TV for $250....because they left out the ability to walk away from your own shadow. It was a very expensive feature.

The real trick now is to find an old-fashioned TV these days!
i have one.
Usually found next to the curb.
Craigslist.
I recently hunted down some high quality ones to set up a co-op ps2 time crisis set up.
Now you can buy the paint he is talking about super cheap :P
Note: A dead tv works just as well for this application. As noted in the description, it must be the glass too.. err tube version.
What lovely sound those damn old tvs made back then... how could we live with that...
This show was magic to a 10yo back in the day, 40 years on and I'm showing whoever will listen to me.
Cool. I remember sometimes turning off the lights and seeing the TV glow for a bit afterwards.

Same thing at COSI, the Center of Science and Industry, in Columbus, Ohio, in the early '90s.
using a blacklight instead of an ordinary lamp make the phosphor glow instantly, and very brightly too, you can also write directly on the screen.
I would have loved this show growing up as a kid. I mean, I love it now, but I would have loved it growing up as a kid too!
God the old 80s big back TV sets nostalgia!!
Ya just say tube tv, not big back tv. I still have a tube tv but its not as cool as this one that has the manual controls

"It was very faint..didn't last for long "...but we did make another video, don't you see...😉
So, do they ever dissect Skippy?
Skippy the beer can?
What if I want to dazzle myself?
That old ass tv...lol I remember them
Thanks. When the segment was made that was a modern TV !- Rob.Curiosity Show was a
national science program for children featuring Dr Rob Morrison and Dr Deane
Hutton. It was made in Adelaide, South Australia and screened nationally in
Australia as well as in Europe, Asia and Australasia (14 countries) from
1972-1990. Deane and Rob intentionally used everyday items around the house
(like old cans) so that children could repeat the demonstrations with materials
they had to hand. In 1984 Curiosity Show won the Prix Jeunesse International,
the world's top award for children's TV programs. Rob and Deane are steadily

The Japanese are great at leaving shadows burnt into the background...I'll see myself out 🚪
I used to draw on my old tv while it was off with a laser pointer.
I want to see them switch off the TV for real and see what the static does to his hair
I remember doing this on CRT TVs 🤣
Might be a good title for a story....
How old are these videos man?

Kids today will wonder what kind of weird thing he was using. They might not even recognize it as a TV.
What we need is an extra from Narcos to fall asleep on a tv….
This doesn't work for me for some reason...
I guess it's kind of the same principle when there's a bright light and then you close your eyes and can still see the image on your eyelids for a few seconds?
Possibly, but rather different chemistry - Rob
Damn ..i have an led screen lol
I tried like hell and my smart tv does it too fast or something.
I have been dazzled!
that high frequency whailing is ear peircing
This is why screen savers were invented.
Wouldn’t it be funny if sometime after this was broadcast, they used a walk away from your shadow idea in a Dr Who episode, set in say, a 📚 library 📚 . Hey who turned off the light 💡?
I'm just gonna buzz off and look at my shadow.
